Title: Help please - wiring for new wah wah switch
Post by: fbloke on April 27, 2011, 11:03:26 PM

Just put a new switch in my Dunlop Crybaby but got the wiring wrong.  It works great turned on , but there's no sound of any description when it's switched off.  The switch is one of these:

So, half the battle is going from the original Crybaby 4 connection jobby to the new 6 connection one and knowing where the wires should now go. Does anyone have a wiring diagram?

Thanks,

Mike.

are you trying to wire it true bypass? Did the original switch have 4 of 3 terminals? I think mine had 3.

I'm assuming you got the Carling SW316-PP

Did you make a note of the original wiring?
